MTC to USC

USC Direct Transfer Tracks

New direct transfer tracks align MTC courses with the first two years at USC.

Transfer Connect

Midlands Technical College and the University of South Carolina have established Transfer Connect (formerly known as the Bridge Program) to provide a streamlined transfer process for MTC-USC Transfer Connect students. The University of South Carolina has expanded its student-oriented programs and services to MTC for students interested in enrolling at the Columbia campus.

At MTC, USC Transfer Connect students will be able to receive information on admissions, financial aid and scholarships, and academic support programs at USC. USC Transfer Connect students can participate in the Carolina Band (marching band) as well as the Carolina Colorguard, Carolina Coquettes, and Carolina Volleyball and Basketball Bands

Registering for Transfer Connect: High School students who apply to the University and are eligible for Transfer Connect will receive information from Undergraduate Admission in early summer. Students who do not apply to the University as incoming freshman should meet with a University admissions counselor or with a representative at their technical colleges to determine their eligibility for the program. If the student is eligible, then complete the Transfer Connect Form (available in the forms section). The Transfer Connect Form is not your official admissions application but serves to enroll you in Transfer Connect only. The deadline to submit the Transfer Connect form for spring transfers is September 1 and for fall transfers is February 1.

MTC-USC Transfer Connect students will be eligible for enrollment at the University of South Carolina after completing a minimum of 30 hours, or by completing an associate degree. The links below provide additional information.
